All temps for cpu are the single highest core temp - 1 of the cores is consistently 5-6c hotter than the others. Max gpu temp is the single hottest card from the test.

Desktop resolution - 1920x1080x120hz - 3DVision disabled

i7-2600k - 4.6ghz, 1.33v - 3 EVGA GTX 580 3GB clocked 850mhz core, 2100mhz mem, 1.05v

Idle - desktop - sli disabled - 235 watts - cpu idle temp 38c - gpu idle temp 27c (warmed up awhile)

Temps taken from CPUID Hardware Monitor - Watts taken from Belkin (sorry no model # on hand)

***** CPU / watt at wall testing *****

prime95, small ffts - 8 threads - sli disabled - 330 watts - max cpu temp - 59c

prime95, in-place large ffts - 8 threads - sli disabled - 340 watts - max cpu temp - 58c

prime95, blend - 8 threads - sli disabled - 340 watts - max cpu temp - 58c

AvP Direct3D 11 Benchmark (default settings) - sli disabled - avg 435 watts (initially spikes to 570 watts until the 2nd scene when the other 2 gpus idle down to 51mhz) - max cpu temp - 46c - max gpu temp - 43c - scores - avg fps 76.2 - avg frame time 13.1ms - # of frames 7988

AvP Direct3D 11 Benchmark (default settings) - tri-sli - 850 watts avg - max cpu temp - 45c - max gpu temp - 45c - scores - avg fps 199.7 - avg frame time 5.0ms - # of frames 20939

Note: I'm tired of testing and wanted to get a "baseline" performance with sli disabled. Tomorrow I'll do 2 and 3 sli, same tests / settings. I'll also do some fraps runs of Skyrim and BF3.

*** Updated with tri-sli scores ***
